I'm sure someone has already talked about this but will the pre-show change for the new version? I feel like the transition from real-life to the cartoon world wouldn't work as effectively when you've already passed through a land/queue that has those same qualities.

Yeah, just to add a last note to this, the reason Super Nintendo World is opening in Japan first is because they wanted to capitalize on the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. There's been talk that the Olympics may be postponed due to the virus and if that does happen, i wouldn't be surprised if...

Oh yeah... Your absolutely right, it's night and day. They look like plastic statues, not living puppets. Whatever they're doing with these figures, it's clearly leading to better results, even if some of the pets look slightly off imo. Maybe it's more the teeth than the fur. Weird to see a...

Ooo, the first ride with microtransactions! I love it! Seriously though, for all these armchair ideas about what an Animal Crossing attraction should look like, I do think that if made reality, it would actually be a smash hit whatever form it takes. I'm sure you all heard about the PAX east...

Don't get your hopes up, we've yet to see the scene where Snowball jumps off a CGI truck and hangs onto a helicopter that's WAY too small for him. It's gonna be great, I just know it! Also, can you clarify what you mean by "Real Fur"? They didn't actually decorate these figures with the fur of...

I don't think Animal Crossing could work as a ride but it would be perfect as a sort of Mini-Diagon Alley away from the rest of Super Nintendo World. Imagine, after enjoying the fast-paced rides and interactive experiences of the Mushroom Kingdom, you could enter a pipe and find yourself in a...

Even though you'll only be able to see it from aerial photos once the land's fully walled off from the rest of the park, I really like the contrast of these two lands. Having a bunch of coal-gray chimney stacks covered in snow right next door to a technicolor mountain draped in rainbow blocks is...

That's a good point but to defend myself, I don't think that's a fair comparison. With the boulder scene in IJA, sure, Indy is the focal point in the room but he's high above you, making it harder to spot the figure's mechanical differences. Also, that scene and the ride in general is...

I'm cautiously excited about the animatronics. It's cool that Universal is creating an attraction with this many figures but I question how consistent they will be. With most rides, the main animatronics usually maintain the same level of motion. However, with how many figures there will be in...

Didn't they also announce they're will be a virtual line? I think that's a first for HW but it makes sense with the size of the show building. Already seems like they're squeezing the most out of the space as they can, hard to imagine an extensive, immersive queue being included. Any details...

Oooo, how exciting! Care to provide more details?

Huh, i thought that "Evolution Plan" from awhile back was finished with the opening of Hogsmeade. Guess i'll have to look it all over again.

Even if they don't end up leaving the space for flex, they can always design the building to fit a HHN maze once the time arrives. After all, if they can build a maze with the restrictions of Parisian Courtyard, they could make it work. Sure, keeping the space open to the public well using it...

Huh, that's pretty cool. Is there a specific reason why it's 10 minutes though? Was it just a length of time that the designers thought would perform best or is it a necessity for the mechanics to work properly?

I'm gonna guess three. One located in the 2nd floor play area, One located on the first floor and One in a hidden room for those who collected all the "stamps" or however that system works.

Honestly i know that's a joke but if Universal actually created a attraction with a Build-Your-Own Ride Vehicle gimmick, i would totally be on board!

There's no information about how big Jurassic Park was on opening day but given the fact that Hogsmeade led to the park reached full capacity for the first time in it's century-long history, i'm gonna assume the two are on very different levels. Speaking of openings, how long do you think...

Ooooh we're getting closer! Feels like progress on the ride is really speeding up now. Any guesses on when it will open? I'm placing my bets on march.

What about Hagrid's? Nobody's brought it up yet and honestly, i think ROTR shares more elements with it than FJ. Both are scenic-heavy, animatronic-focused rides with a drop element in their final show scenes.

Thank you Joe! Your understanding means the world to me. :)
